What is the single biggest challenge you face as a business owner? 

We discussed this topic in our most recent masterclass 'The Surprising Habits of Successful Business Owners' held in our Facebook Community. 

Strong themes were...  

• Procrastination and Avoidance
• Bringing In Sales and Consistent Cashflow 
• Having Balance and getting out of Overwhelm 
• Lacking Confidence 
• Knowing - What are my next steps? How do I get from where I am to where I want to be?  

When we follow the thread all of these can be traced back to one common denominator...

Self- Doubt

It is THE single biggest challenge I notice with my clients

Is this something you struggle with? How does it show up for you? 

Agonising over a decision? Changing your mind? Hesitating? Getting into overwhelm and overworking things? 

The good news is, it CAN be overcome and it DOESN'T have to feel that way! 

...

It's in my DNA

My business lives in my DNA - it always has and it always will. Although for so long I didn’t know why I was here or what it was all about. This meaning of life thing. I carried this constant burden which followed me around like a spectre that I didn’t dare to say out loud...

‘Is this all there is?...'

'There has to be more to life?'

'What's wrong with me?! Why can't I just be happy with my life and everything I DO have?'

Its such a blessing in my life to have worked out why I’m here. What it’s all about. What my suffering has been for. How I can use that in a way that enriches the lives of others. How I can spread joy and love and light through helping people find meaning, fulfilment, balance and inner peace. 

My business is an expression of my soul. It’s one of the primary vehicles through which I can make a difference in the world. 

Does it feel like that for you too?

Why Ambition is so important to possessing more balance in your life.

Ambition - external rewards land of ego

Ambition - internal motivation and reward - meaning, impact, purpose - your WHY

Why is it so important? Because it raises your sense of necessity - and in an endeavour that is challenging, fraught with failure and setbacks - you need to raise your necessity to keep going and not give up.

So how on earth does this fit with balance?! Because to create the balance you need to take action swiftly, imperfectly, and learn as you go - it’s how you get more done in less time. Its how you have a bigger impact without overwhelm and burnout. It’s how I created a successful 6 figure business with a baby, who became a toddler with no external childcare! 

I want this for you. I want this for every woman. 

How do you draw on your ambition to fuel your necessity?

1) Each morning connect with your WHY - remind yourself...

Yesterday was a great day. 

I was reminded of the importance of supporting each other as small business owners, and how easy it can be to make a huge difference in the life of another business owner.

My team keep pleading with me to give them more photos of me - so i listened to a little intuitive hit to reach out to the amazing Stevie J Singh as I realised I could get our paths to cross while I am on holiday in Edinburgh next month.

Stevie produced these amazing shots from an event I ran in Edinburgh in December and really captured the essence of me, the room and the energy we created. 

It didn’t take us long to agree a package, a concept, a plan for our shoot and within a few short hours I had invested in the future of my business - and gained the pleasure of supporting another business.

Stevie shared I was his first booking since lockdown and Covid hit - and it has hit lots of small businesses hard. I was so delighted...

Would you love to significantly increase your impact and visibility, 7 x your income and double your followers within 8 weeks?

Do you dream of having others support you in your business to help you step up and lead with the impact and influence you know deep down is possible?

In this email I want to share exactly how I have created the most successful period in my business to date over the last 90 days and also how my clients have done the same.

Imagine investing £6k in a coaching programme and making that investment back within 2 weeks...Before you even created your growth strategy to take you to 6 figures within 6 months!

How about creating your most successful month of income AND taking 2 weeks off on holiday during the same month...

This is exactly what my amazing client Sarah has just achieved as we begin her second round of business coaching.

Imagine all of this being done in the context of a massively shrinking economy where so...
